…and optional package - installer: install firefox-esr in the Calamares live image so it is available both in the live session and on the target system, and add it to the optional packages list as a selected-by-default item. - cdex: ship a pre-built multi-size (16/24/32/48/64) firefox.ico rendered from the official 128x128 firefox-esr master asset, with white-backed transparent pixels to avoid corner artifacts in ReactOS, and install it into C:\reactos. - cdex: add a Programs -> Firefox shortcut that asks the taskbar bridge to launch the host firefox-esr binary. - cdex: register the firefox launcher in cdex-taskbar-bridge.

…ake Firefox shortcut conditional Add an open-request inbox consumed by the taskbar bridge. cdex-open-folder is registered as the default handler for inode/directory, so Firefox "Show in folder" opens filebrowser instead of a GTK FM. Link ~/Downloads into the Wine prefix so Linux and Win32 apps share files. Also make the Firefox Start Menu shortcut conditional on the host firefox-esr binary being installed, and remove managed Programs shortcuts before recreating them so optional shortcuts disappear after uninstall.

This PR integrates Firefox ESR into the CDEX desktop and makes the ReactOS filebrowser the default folder handler for Linux applications.
Changes:
